I just approved a bunch of messages that have sat in the moderation
queue for quite a while. Google sends mail to moderators when messages
require moderation, but in this case, I (as one of the moderators) had
not received any such moderation messages, and neither, I suppose did
any of the other moderators. Until I got one just now, asking what had
happened to an earlier message.
So: Not the moderators' fault. Blame google instead.
